Private land leading to the summit

The trail is a paved (private) road leading to the top of the mountain. At the big junction, if you turn right, you'll reach a small lake (St-Pie aqueduct). At the summit of mont yamaska, turn left and follow the signs to the antenna at the top. The road becomes bumpier and climbs to the summit.

The view from the summit is breathtaking for such a small mountain. Weather permitting, you'll probably come across people paragliding or gliding. The trail itself is non-existent; it's more of a road through maple groves and private land. The summit is a blast! Beautiful views of the surrounding area.

Mount Yamaska was formed some 125 million years ago by an underwater eruption of magma. This magma did not penetrate the earth's surface and has a deep fig. The hill was formed when glaciers eroded the surrounding sedimentary rock, which is more fragile than the metamorphic rock formed by the contact of magma and sedimentary rock.
